NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED

June 30, 2017

Basis of Presentation

Unless the context otherwise requires:

| • | References herein to “Jacobs” are to Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. and its predecessors;

| • | References herein to the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” are to Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries; and

| • | References herein to the “Group” are to the combined economic interests and activities of the Company and the persons and entities holding noncontrolling interests in our consolidated subsidiaries.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and financial information included herein have been prepared pursuant to the interim period reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. Consequently, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should also read our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 (“2016 Form 10-K”), as well as Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our 2016 Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2017, and for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2017.

Our interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Please refer to Note 17—Definitions of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2016 Form 10-K for the definitions of certain terms used herein.

During the second fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company restructured certain employee welfare trust plans benefitting employees within its India operations by moving these plans under the legal ownership and operation of the Company’s legal entity structure in the region. Historically, the Company structured these plans as separate, stand-alone entities outside of the Company’s consolidated legal entity framework. As a result of these changes, the Company recorded a one-time, non-cash benefit of $9.9 million reported in Selling, general and administrative expense in its consolidated statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2017, with corresponding assets in the plans associated with restricted investments of $7.7 million and employee loans receivable of $2.2 million, each of which are recorded in Miscellaneous Other non-current assets.

During the preparation of the Form 10-Q for the first fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company determined that its prior financial statements contained immaterial misstatements related to incorrect translation of the Company’s non-U.S. goodwill balances from local currency to the U.S. Dollar reporting currency. It was determined that the Company had incorrectly used historical translation rates for the U.S. Dollar in place at the time of the Company’s recording of its foreign goodwill balances rather than using current translation rates at each balance sheet date in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The error dated back to the time of our initial reporting of non-US goodwill balances in the late 1990s and affected our historical quarterly and annual reporting periods through the first fiscal quarter of 2017.

Goodwill and accumulated other comprehensive income in the Company’s September 30, 2016 consolidated balance sheet (which have not been adjusted) were each overstated by $209.9 million and were corrected in the first fiscal quarter of 2017 foreign currency translation adjustment. Consequently, the correction was a direct component of the overall translation adjustment amount of $287.5 million that was reported for the first quarter of fiscal 2017. These adjustments had no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings or Cash Flows. Also, for the three and nine months ended 2016, other comprehensive income was understated by $39.6 million and $41.9 million as a result of these misstatements.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to employ estimates and make assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities, the revenues and expenses reported for the periods covered by the

Page 7

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

accompanying consolidated financial statements, and certain amounts disclosed in these Note s to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Although such estimates and assumptions are based on management’s most recent assessment of the underlying facts and circumstances utilizing the most current information available and past experience, actual resu lts could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Our estimates, judgments, and assumptions are evaluated periodically and adjusted accordingly. Please refer to Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial St atements included in our 2016 Form 10-K for a discussion of the significant estimates and assumptions affecting our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value and Fair Value Measurements

Certain amounts included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented at “fair value.” Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the date fair value is determined (the “measurement date”). When determining fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact, and we consider only those assumptions we believe a typical market participant would consider when pricing an asset or liability. In measuring fair value, we use the following inputs in the order of priority indicated:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, such as (i) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; (ii) quoted prices in markets that have insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (e.g., less active markets); and (iii) model-driven valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated with, observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the fair value measurement.

Please refer to Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2016 Form 10-K for a more complete discussion of the various items within the consolidated financial statements measured at fair value and the methods used to determine fair value.

New Accounting Standards

| • | Revenue Recognition

From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issues accounting standards updates (each being an “ASU”) to its Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), which constitutes the primary source of U.S. GAAP. The Company regularly monitors ASUs as they are issued and considers their applicability to its business. All ASUs applicable to the Company are adopted by the due date and in the manner prescribed by the FASB.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The new guidance provided by ASU 2014-09 is intended to remove inconsistencies and perceived weaknesses in the existing revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability, provide more useful information and simplify the preparation of financial statements. ASU 2014-09 was initially effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. On July 9, 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of this standard. The revised effective date for the standard is for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. The FASB also approved changes allowing for early adoption of the standard as of the original effective date.

The Company’s adoption activities will be performed over three phases: (i) assessment, (ii) design, and (iii) implementation. Our assessment phase is predominantly complete. The following are the potential significant differences identified during the assessment phase:

Performance Obligations

Under current U.S. GAAP the Company typically considers engineering and construction services as separate performance obligations. Under ASU 2014-09, the Company has determined, in most instances, it is likely that engineering and construction services will be required to be combined into a single performance obligation. In these instances, this will likely change the timing and pattern of revenue recognition.

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Contract Modifications

In many instances, the Company enters into contracts for construction services subsequent to entering in to engineering services contracts. Under ASU 2014-09, the construction services contract may be deemed to modify the engineering contract, or may be required to be combined with the engineering contract. This modification or combination of contracts may result in a cumulative catchup adjustment, which will have an immediate impact on the Company’s results of operations in the period the contract combination or modification occurs. In addition, it will change the timing and pattern of revenue recognition after the period the contracts have been combined or modified.

The Company currently intends to adopt the new standard using the Modified Retrospective application. This standard could have a significant impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and an administrative impact on its operations and will depend on the magnitude of the items discussed above. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact through the design and implementation phases.

| • | Lease Accounting

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for most leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public entity financial statements for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. This standard could have a significant administrative impact on its operations, and the Company will further assess the impact through its implementation program.

| • | Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09—Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period for which financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments must be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and does not plan to early adopt this pronouncement.

Segment Information

During the second fiscal quarter of 2016, we reorganized our operations around four global lines of business (“LOB”), which also serve as our operating segments: Petroleum & Chemicals, Buildings & Infrastructure, Aerospace & Technology, and Industrial. We determined that this new organization would better support the needs of managing each unique set of customers that fall within each segment. As a result of the new organization, we subsequently realigned our internal reporting structures to enable our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), to evaluate the performance of each of these segments and make appropriate resource allocations among each of the segments. For purposes of our goodwill impairment testing, we have determined that our operating segments are also our reporting units based on management’s conclusion that the components comprising each of our operating segments share similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria in accordance with ASC 350.

Under the current organization, each LOB has a president that reports directly to the Company's Chairman and CEO or CODM. In addition, the sales function, which had been managed centrally for many years, is now managed on an LOB basis, and accordingly, the associated cost is now embedded in the new segments and reported to the respective LOB presidents. In addition, a portion of the costs of other support functions (e.g., finance, legal, human resources, and information technology) are allocated to each LOB using methodologies which, we believe, effectively attribute the cost of these support functions to the revenue-generating activities of the Company on a rational basis. The cost of the Company’s cash incentive plan, the Management Incentive Plan (“MIP”) and the expense associated with the Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (“1999 SIP”) have likewise been charged to the LOBs except for those amounts determined to relate to the business as a whole (which amounts remain in corporate’s results of operations).

Page 9

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Financial information for each LOB is reviewed by the CODM to assess performance and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. The Company generally does not track assets by LOB, nor does it provide such information to the CO DM.

The CODM evaluates the operating performance of our LOBs using operating profit, which is defined as margin less “corporate charges” (e.g., the allocated amounts described above). The Company incurs certain selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs which relate to its business as a whole which are not allocated to the LOBs.

The following tables present total revenues and operating profit for each reportable segment (in thousands) and include a reconciliation of segment operating profit to total USGAAP operating profit by including certain corporate-level expenses and expenses relating to Restructuring and Other Charges (in thousands).

Included in “Other Corporate Expenses” in the above table are costs and expenses which relate to general corporate activities as well as corporate-managed benefit and insurance programs. Such costs and expenses include: (i) those elements of SG&A expenses relating to the business as a whole; (ii) those elements of our incentive compensation plans relating to corporate personnel whose other compensation costs are not allocated to the LOBs; (iii) the amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of purchased business combinations; (iv) the quarterly variances between the Company’s actual costs of certain of its self-insured integrated risk and employee benefit programs and amounts charged to the LOBs; and (v) certain adjustments relating to costs associated with the Company’s international defined benefit pension plans. In addition, “Other Corporate Expenses” may also include from time to time certain adjustments to contract margins (both positive and negative) associated with projects where it has been determined, in the opinion of management, that such adjustments are not indicative of the performance of the related LOB and therefore should not be attributed to the LOB.

Business Combinations

During the second fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company acquired Aquenta Consulting (NZ) Limited. During the first fiscal quarter of 2016, the Company acquired J.L. Patterson & Associates. These acquisitions were not material to the Company’s consolidated results for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 or 2016.

On May 19, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with Saudi Aramco to form a 50/50 Saudi Arabia-based joint venture company to provide professional program and construction management (PMCM) services for social infrastructure projects throughout Saudi Arabia and across the Middle East and North Africa. The venture is scheduled to commence start-up operations in fourth quarter fiscal 2017. Initial funding commitments from each of the partners include $6.5 million in capital contributions and $7.0 million in partner loans which are expected to be executed during fourth quarter fiscal 2017 or early fiscal 2018. The partners have also committed up to an additional $7.0 million each for future loans to the joint venture.

Claims receivable |  | $ | 17,830 |  |  | $ | 26,061 |

“Amounts billed” consist of amounts invoiced to clients in accordance with the terms of our client contracts and are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. We anticipate that substantially all of such billed amounts will be collected over the next twelve months.

“Unbilled receivables and other” and “Retentions receivable” represent reimbursable costs and amounts earned and reimbursable under contracts in progress as of the respective balance sheet dates. Such amounts become billable according to the contract terms, which usually provide that such amounts become billable upon the passage of time, achievement of certain milestones, or completion of the project. We anticipate that substantially all of such unbilled amounts will be billed and collected over the next twelve months.

“Claims receivable” are included in receivables in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and represent certain costs incurred on contracts to the extent it is probable that such claims will result in additional contract revenue and the amount of such additional revenue can be reliably estimated.

Property, Equipment and Improvements, Net

Property, Equipment and Improvements, Net in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 consist of the following (in thousands):

Restructuring and Other Charges

During the second fiscal quarter of 2015, the Company began implementing a series of initiatives intended to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and better position itself to drive growth of the business in the future. We refer to these initiatives, in the aggregate, as the "2015 Restructuring". These activities evolved and developed over time as management identified and evaluated opportunities for changes in the Company’s operations (and related areas of potential cost savings), as economic conditions changed and as the realignment of the Company’s operations into its four global lines of business was implemented. Actions related to the 2015 Restructuring included involuntary terminations, the abandonment of certain leased offices, combining operational organizations, and the co-location of employees into other existing offices. We did not exit any service types or client end-

markets in connection with the 2015 Restructuring. While the 2015 Restructuring was substantially completed in fiscal second quarter 2017, approximately $9.5 million in additional costs associated with p reviously identified restructuring activities were recognized during the third quarter for accounting purposes.

The majority of the costs associated with the 2015 Restructuring are included in SG&A expense in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The following table summarizes the impacts of the 2015 Restructuring on the Company's reportable segment income by line of business for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016 (in thousands):

Also, during the second fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company entered into strategic business restructuring activities associated with realignment of its Europe, U.K. and Middle East regional operations in our B&I segment. Pre-tax net charges of $22.6 million were recorded associated mainly with net realizable value write-offs on contract accounts receivable of $16.5 million, with additional charges recorded for statutory redundancy and severance costs of $1.4 million and other liabilities of $4.7 million which are both expected to be paid or settled within the next 12 months. Additional charges of $1.2 million were recorded under this business exit during third quarter fiscal 2017 associated mainly with contract accounts receivable charges. Further, management has determined that these business restructuring activities do not qualify for discontinued operations treatment in accordance with U.S. GAAP as the associated businesses were not material.

Collectively, the 2015 Restructuring and the above mentioned business restructuring activities in the Europe, U.K. and Middle East region are referred to as “Restructuring and O ther Charges”.

Long-term Debt

Jacobs and certain of its subsidiaries have a $1.6 billion long-term unsecured, revolving credit facility (the “2014 Facility”) with a syndicate of large U.S. and international banks and financial institutions. The 2014 Facility provides an accordion feature that allows the Company and the lenders to increase the facility amount to $2.1 billion.

The total amount outstanding under the 2014 Facility in the form of direct borrowings at June 30, 2017 was $282.0 million. The Company has issued $2.5 million in letters of credit under the 2014 Facility, leaving $1.3 billion of available borrowing capacity under the 2014 Facility at June 30, 2017. In addition, the Company had issued $35.8 million under separate, committed and uncommitted letter-of-credit facilities for total issued letters of credit of $38.3 million at June 30, 2017.

The 2014 Facility expires in February 2020 and permits the Company to borrow under two separate tranches in U.S. dollars, certain specified foreign currencies, and any other currency that may be approved in accordance with the terms of the 2014 Facility. Depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the 2014 Facility), borrowings under the 2014 Facility bear interest at either a eurocurrency rate plus a margin of between 1.0% and 1.5% or a base rate plus a margin of between 0% and 0.5%. The 2014 Facility also provides for a financial letter of credit sub facility of $300.0 million, permits performance letters of credit, and provides for a $50.0 million sub facility for swing line loans. Letters of credit are subject to fees based on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio at the time any such letter of credit is issued. The Company pays a facility fee of between 0.100% and 0.250% per annum depending on the Company’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio. Amounts outstanding under the 2014 Facility may be prepaid at the option of the Company without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage fees in connection with the prepayment of euro currency loans. The 2014 Facility contains affirmative, negative, and financial covenants customary for financings of this type including, among other things, limitations on certain other indebtedness, loans and investments, liens, mergers, asset sales and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the 2014 Facility contains customary events of default. We were in compliance with our debt covenants at June 30, 2017.

Revenue Accounting for Contracts / Accounting for Joint Ventures

In general, we recognize revenue at the time we provide services. Depending on the commercial terms of the contract, we recognize revenues either when costs are incurred, or using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting by relating contract costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion. Contract losses are provided for in their entirety in the period they become known, without regard to the percentage-of-completion. For multiple contracts with a single customer, we account for each contract separately. We also recognize as revenues, costs associated with claims and unapproved change orders to the extent it is probable that such claims and change orders will result in additional contract revenue, and the amount of such additional revenue can be reliably estimated. A significant portion of the Company’s revenue is earned on cost reimbursable contracts. The percentage of revenues realized by the Company by type of contract during fiscal 2016 can be found in Note 1—Description of Business and Basis of Presentation of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2016 Form 10-K.

Certain cost-reimbursable contracts include incentive-fee arrangements. The incentive fees in such contracts can be based on a variety of factors but the most common factors are the achievement of target completion dates, target costs, and/or other performance criteria. Failure to meet these targets can result in unrealized incentive fees. We recognize incentive fees based on expected results using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. As the contract progresses and more information becomes available, the estimate of the anticipated incentive fee that will be earned is revised as necessary. We bill incentive fees based on the terms and conditions of the individual contracts. In certain situations, we are allowed to bill a portion of the incentive fees over the performance period of the contract. In other situations, we are allowed to bill incentive fees only after the target criterion has been achieved. Incentive fees which have been recognized but not billed are included in receivables in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Certain cost-reimbursable contracts with government customers as well as certain commercial clients provide that contract costs are subject to audit and adjustment. In this situation, revenues are recorded at the time services are performed based upon the amounts we expect to realize upon completion of the contracts. Revenues are not recognized for non-recoverable costs. In those situations where an audit indicates that we may have billed a client for costs not allowable under the terms of the contract, we estimate the amount of such non-billable costs and adjust our revenues accordingly.

Page 14

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

When we are directly responsible for subcontractor labor or third-party materials and equipment, we reflect the costs of such items in both revenues and costs. On those projects where the client elects to pay for such items directly and we have no associated responsibility for such items, these amounts are not reflected in either revenues or costs.

The following table sets forth pass-through costs included in revenues for each of the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016 (in thousands):

|  | For the Three Months Ended |  |  | For the Nine Months Ended |
|  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |
Pass-through costs included in revenues |  | $ | 628,070 |  |  | $ | 616,160 |  |  | $ | 1,861,615 |  |  | $ | 1,887,620 |

As is common to the industry, we execute certain contracts jointly with third parties through various forms of joint ventures and consortiums. Although the joint ventures own and hold the contracts with the clients, the services required by the contracts are typically performed by us and our joint venture partners, or by other subcontractors under subcontracting agreements with the joint ventures. The assets of our joint ventures, therefore, consist almost entirely of cash and receivables (representing amounts due from clients), and the liabilities of our joint ventures consist almost entirely of amounts due to the joint venture partners (for services provided by the partners to the joint ventures under their individual subcontracts) and other subcontractors. In general, at any given time, the equity of our joint ventures represents the undistributed profits earned on contracts the joint ventures hold with clients. Very few of our joint ventures have employees. None of our joint ventures have third-party debt or credit facilities. Our joint ventures, therefore, are simply mechanisms used to deliver engineering and construction services to clients. Rarely do they, in and of themselves, present any risk of loss to us or to our partners separate from those that we would carry if we were performing the contract on our own. Our share of the losses associated with contracts held by the joint ventures is reflected in our consolidated financial statements as occurred.

Certain of our joint ventures meet the definition of a “variable interest entity” (“VIE”). As defined in U.S. GAAP, a VIE is a legal entity in which equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or, as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack any one of the following three characteristics: (i) the power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity; or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity. Accordingly, entities issuing consolidated financial statements (e.g., a “reporting entity”) must consolidate a VIE if the reporting entity has a “controlling financial interest” in the VIE, as demonstrated by the reporting entity having both (i) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

In evaluating our VIEs for possible consolidation, we perform a qualitative analysis to determine whether or not we have a “controlling financial interest” in the VIE as defined by U.S. GAAP. We consolidate only those VIEs over which we have a controlling financial interest. The Company does not currently participate in any significant VIEs.

Defined Pension Benefit Obligations

The following table presents the components of net periodic benefit cost recognized in earnings during each of the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016 (in thousands):

Net periodic benefit (income) cost |  | $ | (1,195 | ) |  | $ | 3,025 |  |  | $ | (3,309 | ) |  | $ | 23,661 |

The decrease in periodic benefit costs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the corresponding period last year was primarily due to the curtailment of our U.K. plans and the de-recognition of the U.S. pension plan for

Page 15

participating employe es who were assigned to, and worked exclusively on, a specific operating contract with the U.S. federal government.

Income Taxes

The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was 30.4%, a decrease from 31.0% for the corresponding period last year. This decline was mainly attributable to increased year over year benefits from favorable changes in geographic income mix. On a comparative basis, the favorable impact of these changes in geographic mix was partially offset by the absence of net favorable rate impacts in third quarter fiscal 2016 relating to discrete tax items consisting of 1) a favorable income tax reserve release of $4.5 million due to the expiration of statute of limitations, 2) a $5.7 million benefit related to an amended tax return to claim additional benefits for foreign tax credits and a US IRC section 179D deduction, and 3) an offsetting unfavorable $8.8 million in return to accrual adjustments.

The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 increased to 29.2% up from 26.5% for the corresponding period last year. The primary driver contributing to the year over year increase was the absence of an $11.2 million valuation allowance release in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 pertaining to certain foreign net operating losses, as well as the absence of the third quarter fiscal 2016 discrete items mentioned above. The unfavorable comparative impact of these items were offset in part by favorable changes in geographic income mix during the nine months fiscal 2017 and a $3.3 million favorable benefit of nontaxable income received by a foreign affiliate in second quarter fiscal 2017.

The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to ongoing audits by tax jurisdictions around the world. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by tax authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, India, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at the time. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, future results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which may impact our effective tax rate.

It is reasonably possible that, during the next 12 months, we may realize a decrease in our uncertain tax positions of approximately $11.0 million as a result of concluding various tax audits and closing tax years.

Earnings Per Share and Certain Related Information

Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation method that determines earnings per share (“EPS”) for common shares and participating securities. The undistributed earnings are allocated between common shares and participating securities as if all earnings had been distributed during the period. Participating securities and common shares have equal rights to undistributed earnings. Net earnings used for the purpose of determining basic and diluted earnings per share is determined by taking net earnings, less earnings available to participating securities. For the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2017, the earnings available to participating securities were $1.0 million and $2.3 million, respectively.

The following table (i) reconciles the denominator used to compute basic EPS to the denominator used to compute diluted EPS for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016; (ii) provides information regarding the number of non-qualified stock options and shares of restricted stock that were antidilutive and therefore disregarded in calculating the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in computing diluted EPS; and (iii) provides the number of shares of common stock issued from the exercise of stock options and the release of restricted stock (in thousands):

|  | For the Three Months Ended |  |  | For the Nine Months Ended |
|  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |
Diluted: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 119,206 |  |  |  | 119,850 |  |  |  | 119,360 |  |  |  | 120,330 |
Dilutive potential common shares (1) |  |  | 1,873 |  |  |  | 1,596 |  |  |  | 2,207 |  |  |  | 1,198 |
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 121,079 |  |  |  | 121,446 |  |  |  | 121,567 |  |  |  | 121,528 |
Antidilutive stock options and restricted stock |  |  | 460 |  |  |  | 2,152 |  |  |  | 107 |  |  |  | 2,871 |
Shares of common stock issued from the exercise of stock options and the release of restricted stock |  |  | 606 |  |  |  | 534 |  |  |  | 1,973 |  |  |  | 1,049 |

(1) | Diluted earnings per share include any dilutive impact of stock options, restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units and performance awards.

Share Repurchases

On July 23, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $500 million of the Company’s common stock. The following table summarizes the activity under this program from the authorization date (in thousands, except per-share amounts):

Amount Authorized |  |  | Average Price Per Share (1) |  |  | Total Shares Retired |  |  | Shares Repurchased |
$ | 500,000 |  |  | $ | 48.44 |  |  |  | 5,156 |  |  |  | 5,156 |

(1) | Includes commissions paid and calculated at the average price per share since the repurchase program authorization date.

Share repurchases may be executed through various means including, without limitation, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The share repurchase program does not obligate the Company to purchase any shares and expires on July 22, 2018. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, increased or decreased by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. The timing of share repurchases may depend upon market conditions, other uses of capital, and other factors.

Dividend Program

On December 1, 2016, the Company announced that the Board of Directors has approved the initiation of a cash dividend program. A quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share was paid on June 16, 2017, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 19, 2017. On July 18, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share to be paid on September 1, 2017 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 4, 2017. Future dividend payments are subject to review and approval by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Subsequent Events

Merger Agreement

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with CH2M HILL Companies, Ltd. (“CH2M”), and Basketball Merger Sub Inc., a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into CH2M, with CH2M continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”) and (ii) each outstanding share of common stock of CH2M will be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof in accordance with, and subject to, the terms, conditions and procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement, in each case without interest the following consideration: (a) the combination of (x) $52.85 in cash and (y) 0.6677 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company; (b) $88.08 in cash; or (c) 1.6693 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company expects to finance the $2.4 billion in cash required for the transaction through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings under the Company’s existing revolving credit facility and $1.2 billion of new committed 3-year term debt. The Merger is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and approval by CH2M stockholders.

Commitment Letters

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a commitment letter pursuant to which BNP Paribas, BNP Paribas Securities Corp. and The Bank of Nova Scotia committed to provide a three-year senior unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.2 billion to finance the Merger, subject to customary conditions.

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a commitment letter with BNP Paribas, BNP Paribas Securities Corp. and The Bank of Nova Scotia in order to backstop its existing revolving credit facility in the event that the Company is not able to obtain the certain consents to its existing revolving credit agreement, subject to customary conditions.

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, we are subject to certain contractual guarantees and litigation. The guarantees to which we are a party generally relate to project schedules and plant performance. Most of the litigation in which we are involved has us as a defendant in workers’ compensation, personal injury, environmental, employment/labor, professional liability, and other similar lawsuits.

We maintain insurance coverage for various aspects of our business and operations. Our insurance programs have varying coverage limits and maximums, and insurance companies may seek to not pay any claims we might make. We have also elected to retain a portion of losses that occur through the use of various deductibles, limits, and retentions under our insurance programs. As a result, we may be subject to future liability for which we are only partially insured or completely uninsured. We intend to mitigate any such future liability by continuing to exercise prudent business judgment in negotiating the terms and conditions of our contracts. Our insurers are also subject to business risk and, as a result, one or more of them may be unable to fulfill their insurance obligations due to insolvency or otherwise.

Additionally, as a contractor providing services to the U.S. federal government and several of its agencies, we are subject to many levels of audits, investigations, and claims by, or on behalf of, the U.S. federal government with respect to our contract performance, pricing, costs, cost allocations, and procurement practices. Furthermore, our income, franchise, and similar tax returns and filings are also subject to audit and investigation by the Internal Revenue Service, most states within the U.S., as well as by various government agencies representing jurisdictions outside the U.S.

We record in our Consolidated Balance Sheets amounts representing our estimated liability relating to such claims, guarantees, litigation, and audits and investigations. We perform an analysis to determine the level of reserves to establish for insurance-related claims that are known and have been asserted against us, and for insurance-related claims that are believed to have been incurred based on actuarial analysis, but have not yet been reported to our claims administrators as of the respective balance sheet dates. We include any adjustments to such insurance reserves in our consolidated results of operations.

The Company believes, after consultation with counsel, that such guarantees, litigation, U.S. government contract-related audits, investigations and claims, and income tax audits and investigations should not have any material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

On September 30, 2015, Nui Phao Mining Company Limited (“NPMC”) commenced arbitration proceedings against Jacobs E&C Australia Pty Limited (“Jacobs E&C”). The arbitration is pending in Singa pore before the Singapore International Arbitration Centre. In March 2011, Jacobs E&C was engaged by NPMC for the provision of management, design, engineering, and procurement services for the Nui Phao mine/mineral processing project in Vietnam. In the Not ice of Arbitration and in a subsequently filed Statement of Claim and Supplementary Statement of Claim dated February 1, 2016 and February 26, 2016, respectively, NPMC asserts various causes of action and alleges that the quantum of its claim exceeds $167 million. Jacobs has denied liability and is vigorously defending this claim. A hearing on the merits has been set for November 2017. The Company does not expect the resolution of this matter to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, res ults of operations and/or cash flows.

On December 7, 2009, the Judicial Council of California, Administrative Office of the Courts (“AOC”) initiated an action in the San Francisco County Superior Court against Jacobs Facilities Inc. (“JFI”) and Jacobs Project Management (“JPM”) and subsequently added Jacobs as a defendant. The action arises out of a contract between AOC and JFI pursuant to which JFI provided regular maintenance and repairs at certain AOC court facilities. AOC has alleged, among other things, that the Jacobs entities are required under California’s Contractors’ State License Law (“CSLL”) to disgorge certain fees paid by AOC, and the Jacobs entities have, among other things, cross-claimed for unpaid sums for work performed. On May 2, 2012, the jury returned a special verdict in favor of the Jacobs entities finding, among other things, JPM was owed approximately $4.7 million in unpaid fees and that JFI was not required to disgorge the approximate $18.3 million that AOC had paid for work performed.

On August 20, 2015, the California Court of Appeal reversed the jury’s verdict, holding that JFI had violated the CSLL. The Court of Appeal remanded to the San Francisco County Superior Court for an evidentiary hearing to determine whether the JFI had “substantially complied” with the CSLL under California Business and Professions Code Section 7031(e). Establishing “substantial compliance” would prevent $18.3 million in disgorgement against Jacobs and permit Jacobs to recover $4.7 million. The evidentiary hearing on substantial compliance was conducted between July 18 and August 5, 2016. On December 29, 2016, the court issued a Statement of Decision in favor of the Company, finding that Jacobs Facilities had substantially complied with the CSLL, and entered a judgment in favor of JPM in the amount of $4.7 million plus prejudgment interest. On January 30, 2017, AOC filed a notice of appeal. The Company does not expect the resolution of this matter to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

General

The purpose of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is to provide a narrative analysis explaining the reasons for material changes in the Company’s (i) financial condition from the most recent fiscal year-end to June 30, 2017, and (ii) results of operations during the current fiscal period(s) as compared to the corresponding period(s) of the preceding fiscal year. In order to better understand such changes, readers of this MD&A should also read:

| • | The discussion of the critical and significant accounting policies used by the Company in preparing its consolidated financial statements. The most current discussion of our critical accounting policies appears in Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our 2016 Form 10-K, and the most current discussion of our significant accounting policies appears in Note 2—Significant Accounting Polices in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2016 Form 10-K;

| • | The Company’s fiscal 2016 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2016 Form 10-K; and

| • | Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2016 Form 10-K.

In addition to historical information, this MD&A and other parts of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not directly relate to any historical or current fact. When used herein, words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “future,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “can,” “may,” and similar words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Although such statements are based on management’s current estimates and expectations, and/or currently available competitive, financial, and economic data, forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from what may be inferred from the forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those listed and discussed in Item 1A—Risk Factors, included in our 2016 Form 10-K. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements. We encourage you to read carefully the risk factors described in our 2016 Form 10-K and in other documents we file from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Reorganization Under Lines of Business

During the second fiscal quarter of 2016, we reorganized our operations around four global lines of business (“LOB”), which also serve as our operating segments: Petroleum & Chemicals, Buildings & Infrastructure, Aerospace & Technology, and Industrial. We determined that this new organization would better support the needs of managing each unique set of customers that fall within each segment. As a result of the reorganization, we subsequently realigned our internal reporting structures to enable our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), to evaluate the performance of each of these segments and make appropriate resource allocations among each of the segments. As part of the reorganization, the sales function, which had been managed centrally for many years, is now embedded in the new segments and reports to the respective LOB presidents.

Restructuring and Other Charges

During the second fiscal quarter of 2015, the Company began implementing a series of initiatives intended to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and better position itself to drive growth of the business in the future (the “2015 Restructuring”). The 2015 Restructuring was not completed in fiscal 2015, and actions related to the 2015 Restructuring continued into fiscal 2016 and 2017. Actions related to the 2015 Restructuring include involuntary terminations, the abandonment of certain leased offices, combining operational organizations, and the co-location of employees into other existing offices. The Company’s consolidated results of operations for the third fiscal quarters of 2017 and 2016 include $9.5 million and $32.9 million, respectively, and $92.1 million and $136.7 million for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, of pre-tax costs associated with the 2015 Restructuring.

The following table summarizes the major type of restructuring costs under the 2015 Restructuring for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016 (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended |  |  | For the Nine Months Ended |
| June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |

Total | $ | 9,454 |  |  | $ | 32,920 |  |  | $ | 92,061 |  |  | $ | 136,671 |

While the 2015 Restructuring was substantially completed in fiscal second quarter 2017, approximately $9.5 million in additional costs associated with previously identified restructuring activities were recognized this quarter for accounting purposes. The Company expects annual savings from the 2015 Restructuring upon its completion to approximate $285 million per year.

Also, during the second fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company entered into strategic business restructuring activities associated with realignment of its Europe, U.K. and Middle East regional operations in our B&I segment. Pre-tax net charges of $22.6 million were recorded associated mainly with net realizable value write-offs on contract accounts receivable of $16.5 million, with additional charges recorded for statutory redundancy and severance costs of $1.4 million and other liabilities of $4.7 million which are both expected to be paid or settled within the next 12 months. Additional charges of $1.2 million were recorded under this business exit during third quarter fiscal 2017 associated mainly with contract accounts receivable charges. Further, management has determined that these business restructuring activities do not qualify for discontinued operations treatment in accordance with U.S. GAAP as the associated businesses were not material.

Collectively, the 2015 Restructuring and the above mentioned business restructuring activities in the Europe, U.K. and Middle East region are referred to as “Restructuring and Other Charges”. The following table summarizes the effects of Restructuring and Other Charges in the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months period ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016, respectively (in thousands, except for earnings per share):

Overview – Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2017

Net earnings for the third fiscal quarter of 2017 ended June 30, 2017 were $89.0 million (or $0.74 per diluted share), an increase of $20.0 million, or 28.9%, from $69.1 million (or $0.57 per diluted share) for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017 net earnings were $199.6 million (or $1.64 per diluted share), an increase of $ 18.8 million, or 10.4%, from $180.8 million (or $1.49 per diluted share) for the corresponding period last year. Excluding the effects of Restructuring and Other Charges occurring in the third fiscal quarter of 2017 and 2016, adjusted net earnings were $95.3 million (or $0.79 per diluted share), an increase of $0.5 million, or 0.5%, from $94.8 million (or $0.78 per diluted share) for the corresponding period last year. Excluding the effects of Restructuring and Other Charges occurring in the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016, adjusted net earnings were $$273.9 million (or $2.25 per diluted share), a decrease of $ 6.5 million, or 2.3%, from $280.4 million (or $2.31 per diluted share) for the corresponding period last year.

Results of Operations

Total revenues for the third fiscal quarter of 2017 were $2.51 billion, a decrease of $179.1 million, or 6.6% from $2.69 billion for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, total revenues were $7.37 billion, a decrease of $954.6 million, or 11.5%, from $8.32 billion for the corresponding period last year. The decrease in revenues was due primarily to lower volumes in the Petroleum & Chemicals, Aerospace & Technology and Industrial LOB’s, partially offset by an increase in volume in the Buildings & Infrastructure LOB. These lower volumes were driven mainly by lower field services volume, primarily with P&C customers and the timing of project completions versus new project timing.

Direct costs of contracts for the third fiscal quarter of 2017 were $2.1 billion, a decrease of 187.0 million, or 8.3%, from $2.2 billion for the corresponding period last year. Direct costs of contracts for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 were $6.1 billion, a decrease of $916.5 million, or 13.1%, from $7.0 billion for the corresponding period last year. Direct costs of contracts include all costs incurred in connection with and directly for the benefit of client contracts, including depreciation and amortization relating to assets used in providing the services required by the related projects. The level of direct costs of contracts may fluctuate between reporting periods due to a variety of factors, including the amount of pass-through costs we incur during a period. On those projects where we are responsible for subcontract labor or third-party materials and equipment, we reflect the amounts of such items in both revenues and costs (and we refer to such costs as “pass-through costs”). On other projects where the client elects to pay for such items directly and we have no associated responsibility for such items, these amounts are not considered pass-through costs and are, therefore, not reflected in either revenues or costs. To the extent that we incur a significant amount of pass-through costs in a period, our direct costs of contracts are likely to increase as well.

Pass-through costs included in revenues for the third fiscal quarter of 2017 were $628.1 million, an increase of $11.9 million, or 1.9%, from $616.2 million for the corresponding period last year. Pass-through costs included in revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 were $1.9 billion and in line with amounts in the corresponding period last year. In general, pass-through costs are more significant on projects that have a higher content of field services activities. Pass-through costs are generally incurred at specific points during the life cycle of a project and are highly dependent on the needs of our individual clients and the nature of the clients’ projects. However, because we have hundreds of projects which start at various times within a fiscal year, the effect of pass-through costs on the level of direct costs of contracts can vary between fiscal years without there being a fundamental or significant change to the underlying business.

Page 24

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

As a percentage of revenues, direct costs of contracts for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 was 81.7% and 82.4%, respectively. This compares to 83.2% and 83.9% for the three and nine months ended July 1, 2016. The relationship between direct costs of contracts and revenues will fluctuate between re porting periods depending on a variety of factors including the mix of business during the reporting periods being compared as well as the level of margins earned from the various types of services provided. Generally, the more procurement we do on behalf of our clients (e.g., where we purchase equipment and materials for use on projects and/or procure subcontracts in connection with projects) and the more field services revenues we have relative to technical, professional services revenues, the higher the ratio will be of direct costs of contracts to revenues. Because revenues from pass-through cost arrangements typically have lower margin rates associated with them, it is not unusual for us to experience an increase or decrease in such revenues without exp eriencing a proportionate increase or decrease in our gross margins and operating profit. The reduction in cost relative to revenue is driven by both 1) our strategic focus on realigning our portfolio to higher profit businesses and 2) a reduction in fiel d services revenue, which tends to have a lower margin, as a percent of total revenue resulting in higher margin overall.

SG&A expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $330.9 million, a decrease of $11.0 million, or 3.2%, from $341.9 million for the corresponding period last year. SG&A expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 were $1,012.7 million, a decrease of $67.7 million, or 6.3%, from $1,080.4 million for the corresponding period last year. The decrease in SG&A expenses for the three month comparative periods was due mainly to lower Restructuring and Other Charges of $22.2 million and related savings from the 2015 Restructuring of $15.9 million, partly offset by approximately $27 million in higher costs due mainly to personnel related costs and professional service fees. The decrease in SG&A expenses for the nine month comparative periods was due mainly to lower Restructuring and Other Charges of $20.8 million and related savings from the 2015 Restructuring of $82.0 million, partly offset by approximately $35.0 million in higher costs due mainly to personnel related costs and professional service fees.

Net interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $1.9 million, a decrease of $2.0 million from $3.9 million for the corresponding period last year. Net interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 was $5.6 million, an increase of $0.4 million from $5.2 million for the corresponding period last year. The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the corresponding period last year was due primarily to an increase in interest income of $1.5 million. The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the corresponding period last year was due primarily to a reversal of $2.7 million of accrued interest expense related to the statute expiration of a foreign tax reserve, which did not recur in fiscal 2017, offset by a $0.6 million increase in interest income and a reduction of $1.0 million in interest expense related to an international tax liability and a $0.5 million reduction in miscellaneous interest expense.

Miscellaneous income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.9 million, in comparison to $(2.8) million for the corresponding period last year. This change was due primarily to gains on sale of office space in our India and U.S. operations of $2.0 million, lower year over year foreign exchange losses and other during the 2017 period. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, miscellaneous income (expense) was $(5.9) million, as compared to $0.5 million for the corresponding period last year. This change was due primarily to a reversal in fiscal 2016 of $5.1 million of accrued penalties related to the statute expiration of a foreign tax reserve, which did not recur in fiscal 2017.

The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was 30.4%, down from 31.0% for the corresponding period last year. This decline was mainly attributable to increased year over year benefits from favorable changes in geographic income mix for the three month. On a comparative basis, the favorable impact of the changes in geographic mix was partially offset by the absence of net favorable rate impacts in third quarter fiscal 2016 discrete tax items consisting of 1) a favorable income tax reserve release of $4.5 million due to the expiration of a statute of limitations, 2) a $5.7 million benefit related to an amended tax return to claim additional benefits for foreign tax credits and a US IRC section 179D deduction and 3) an offsetting unfavorable $8.8 million in return to accrual adjustments.

The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 increased to 29.2% from 26.5% for the corresponding period last year. The primary driver contributing to this increase was the absence of an $11.2 million valuation allowance release in the first nine months of fiscal 2016 pertaining to certain foreign net operating losses, as well as the absence of the third quarter fiscal 2016 discrete items mentioned above. The unfavorable comparative impact of these items were offset in part by favorable changes in geographic income mix during the nine months fiscal 2017 and a $3.3 million favorable benefit of nontaxable income received by a foreign affiliate in second quarter fiscal 2017.

The amount of income taxes the Company pays is subject to ongoing audits by tax jurisdictions around the world. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by tax authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Australia, Canada, India, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States. Our estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to our assessment of the relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at the time. The Company

Page 25

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

believes that it has adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to these matters. However, futu re results may include favorable or unfavorable adjustments to our estimated tax liabilities in the period the assessments are made or resolved, which may impact our effective tax rate.

It is reasonably possible that, during the next 12 months, we may realize a decrease in our uncertain tax positions of approximately $11.0 million (being realized as a reduction in income tax expense) as a result of concluding various tax audits and closing tax years.

In evaluating the Company’s performance by operating segment, the CODM reviews various metrics and statistical data for each LOB but focuses primarily on revenues and operating profit. As discussed above, segment operating profit includes not only local SG&A expenses but the SG&A expenses of the Company’s support groups that have been allocated to the segments. In addition, the Company attributes each LOB’s specific incentive compensation plan costs to the LOBs. The revenues of certain LOBs are more affected by pass-through revenues than other LOBs. The methods for recognizing revenue, incentive fees, project losses, and change orders are consistent among the LOBs.

Aerospace & Technology segment revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $585.4 million, down $82.4 million, or 12.3%, from $667.8 million for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, revenues for this segment were $1.74 billion, down $267.5 million, or 13.3%, from $2.01 billion for the corresponding period last year. The decrease in revenues for both periods was mainly in our U.S. government business sector, where rebid losses and sma ll business award preferences drove the declines. Unfavorable foreign currency impacts of $5 million and $22 million also contributed to these year over year declines for the respective three and nine month periods. These unfavorable items were partially offset by positive gains from organic growth and improvement in our tele-communications sector, our NASA projects and our projects for the Ministry of Defence in Australia.

Operating profit for the segment was $50.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, down $3.1 million, or 5.9% from $53.7 million for the corresponding period last year. Operating profit for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 was $146.7 million, down $10.1 million, or 6.5% from $156.9 million for the same period last year. The decrease in profitability for both periods was due primarily to the revenue declines in the U.S. government business sector mentioned above, as well as lower equity income from our U.K. joint venture of $2.3 million and $7.0 million for the three and nine month comparative periods for fiscal 2017 versus 2016 and mostly associated with year over year declines in project funding.

Buildings & Infrastructure

| For the Three Months Ended |  |  | For the Nine Months Ended |
| June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |
Revenue | $ | 647,252 |  |  | $ | 553,546 |  |  | $ | 1,813,111 |  |  | $ | 1,696,004 |
Operating Profit |  | 56,173 |  |  |  | 50,168 |  |  |  | 138,957 |  |  |  | 133,083 |

Buildings & Infrastructure revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $647.3 million, up $93.7 million, or 16.9%, compared to $553.5 million for the comparative period in 2016. Revenues for the nine month period ended June 30, 2017 were $1.81 billion, an increase of $117.1 million, or 6.9%, versus $1.70 billion for the comparable period in 2016. The year over year increases in revenues for both the three and nine month periods were due mainly to U.S. client spending level increases in the project-management/construction-management (“PMCM”) market. Year over year impacts on revenues from unfavorable foreign currency were approximately $10 million and $40 million for the three and nine months periods, respectively.

Operating profit for Buildings & Infrastructure for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $56.2 million, an increase of $6.0 million, or 12.0%, from $50.2 million for third quarter fiscal 2016. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, operating profit for the segment was $139.0 million, up $5.9 million, or 4.4%, compared to $133.1 million for the nine month period in 2016. Excluded from the reported operating profit amounts for the three and nine month periods ending June 30, 2017 were $1.2 million and $23.8 million, respectively, in Restructuring and Other Charges related to strategic business restructuring activities in our U.K, Middle East and Europe businesses. Increases in profitability for both periods in 2017 over 2016 were due mainly to higher revenue from the U.S. PMCM projects which more than offset a contract settlement charge of $6.0 million during the second fiscal quarter of 2017.

Industrial

| June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |

Operating Profit |  | 32,347 |  |  |  | 28,444 |  |  |  | 81,549 |  |  |  | 68,216 |

Industrial revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $681.6 million, a decrease of $24.4 million, or 3.5%, versus $706.0 million from the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017 revenues were $2.02 billion versus $2.04 billion for the same period in 2016, down slightly by $28.9 million, or 1.4% . The slight decrease in revenues for the three month comparative periods was due mainly to declines in the Field Services business of $87 million resulting from the completion of a number of construction projects, as well as unfavorable impacts from foreign currency. These declines were offset in part by higher revenues in Life Sciences of approximately $67.0 million based on increased large program spending. For the comparative nine month periods, the decrease in revenues was due mainly to $181.0 million in revenue declines from Field Services project completions, weaker market conditions in the Mining and Minerals businesses and unfavorable foreign currency impacts, partially offset by $195.0 million in higher revenues associated with increased client major capex spending in the Life Sciences business.

Operating profit for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $32.3 million, an increase of $3.9 million, or 13.7%, compared to $28.4 million for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, operating profit was $81.5 million, up

Page 27

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

$13.3 million, or 19.5%, from $68.2 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase in profitability for the comparative three and nine month periods was due mainly to improved project performance in the Mining and Minerals business and high er levels of professional service and project procurement business in Life Sciences. On a nine month basis, the year over year profit comparison was impacted by unfavorable charges in second quarter fiscal 2016 associated with litigation settlements and a customer bankruptcy amounting to $12.2 million. Excluding these items, Industrial operating profit for the nine months ending 2017 was up $1.2 million over the corresponding period in 2016, due mainly to the improved profitability from the higher revenue l evels in Life Sciences, largely offset by the unfavorable impacts from lower results in Field Services based on the noted revenue declines and weaker market conditions in Mining and Minerals.

Petroleum & Chemicals

| For the Three Months Ended |  |  | For the Nine Months Ended |
| June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |  |  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |
Revenue | $ | 600,479 |  |  | $ | 766,546 |  |  | $ | 1,800,119 |  |  | $ | 2,575,474 |
Operating Profit |  | 29,055 |  |  |  | 29,646 |  |  |  | 88,326 |  |  |  | 92,194 |

Petroleum & Chemicals revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $600.5 million, a decrease of $166.1 million, or 21.7%, from $766.5 million for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, revenues for the segment were $1.80 billion, a decrease of $775.4 million, or 30.1%, from $2.58 billion for the same period in 2016. The decrease in revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year was due primarily to the completion or wind-down of several projects with significant pass through revenue as well as award delays of large post front-end engineering and design projects, as clients continue to evaluate their capital spending plans while oil prices remain low. Both of these factors resulted in lower field service revenues compared with the prior year periods, while client investment spending continues primarily on compliance, maintenance and sustaining capital programs. Additionally, foreign currency impacts were unfavorable on year over year revenue comparisons for the three and nine month periods for 2017 versus 2016.

Operating profit for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $29.1 million and essentially flat with the corresponding period last year, with decreases in profitability due to the revenue declines described above being offset mainly by improving business mix and restructuring savings of $3.5 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, operating profit was $88.3 million, a decrease of $3.9 million, or 4.2%, from $92.2 million for the corresponding period last year. The decrease in profitability for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year period was due to revenue declines from lower business volumes mentioned above, offset in part by SG&A savings of approximately $20.0 million from restructuring efforts and a one-time $9.9 million benefit associated with benefit plan changes in our India operations.

Other Corporate Expenses

Other corporate expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $29.0 million, an increase of $9.5 million, or 48.5% from $19.5 million for the corresponding period last year. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017, other corporate expenses were $54.4 million, a decrease of $3.5 million, or 6.1% from $57.9 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase in other corporate expenses for the three month comparative periods was due mainly to higher personnel related costs of $5.3 million and professional service fees of $10.0 million, partially offset by savings associated with the 2015 Restructuring program. The decrease in other corporate expenses for the comparative nine month periods was due mainly to savings from the 2015 Restructuring program.

Included in other corporate expenses in the above table are costs and expenses which relate to general corporate activities as well as corporate-managed benefit and insurance programs. Such costs and expenses include: (i) those elements of SG&A expenses relating to the business as a whole; (ii) those elements of our incentive compensation plans relating to corporate personnel whose other compensation costs are not allocated to the LOBs; (iii) the amortization of intangible assets acquired as part of purchased business combinations; (iv) the quarterly variances between the Company’s actual costs of certain of its self-insured integrated risk and employee benefit programs and amounts charged to the LOBs; and (v) certain adjustments relating to costs associated with the Company’s international defined benefit pension plans. In addition, other corporate expenses may also include from time to time certain adjustments to contract margins (both positive and negative) associated with projects where it has been determined, in the opinion of management, that such adjustments are not indicative of the performance of the related LOB.

Backlog Information

We include in backlog the total dollar amount of revenues we expect to record in the future as a result of performing work under contracts that have been awarded to us. Our policy with respect to O&M contracts, however, is to include in backlog the amount of

Page 28

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

revenues we expect to receive for one succeeding year, regardless of the remaining life of the contract. F or national government programs (other than national government O&M contracts), our policy is to include in backlog the full contract award, whether funded or unfunded, excluding option periods. Because of the nature, size, expected duration, funding commi tments, and the scope of services required by our contracts, the timing of when backlog will be recognized as revenues can vary greatly between individual contracts.

Consistent with industry practice, substantially all of our contracts are subject to cancellation or termination at the option of the client. While management uses all information available to it to determine backlog, at any given time our backlog is subject to changes in the scope of services to be provided as well as increases or decreases in costs relating to the contracts included therein. Backlog is not necessarily an indicator of future revenues.

Because certain contracts (e.g., contracts relating to large EPC projects as well as national government programs) can cause large increases to backlog in the fiscal period in which we recognize the award, and because many of our contracts require us to provide services that span over a number of fiscal quarters (and sometimes over fiscal years), we evaluate our backlog on a year-over-year basis, rather than on a sequential, quarter-over-quarter basis.

The following table summarizes our backlog at June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016 (in millions):

|  | June 30, 2017 |  |  | July 1, 2016 |
Aerospace & Technology |  | $ | 5,552.9 |  |  | $ | 5,126.7 |
Buildings & Infrastructure |  |  | 5,346.0 |  |  |  | 4,843.0 |
Industrial |  |  | 2,235.7 |  |  |  | 3,203.9 |
Petroleum & Chemicals |  |  | 5,421.6 |  |  |  | 5,149.1 |
Total |  | $ | 18,556.2 |  |  | $ | 18,322.6 |

Backlog in Aerospace & Technology at June 30, 2017 was $5,552.9 million, up $426.2 million when compared to the corresponding period last year. The year-over-year increase in backlog was primarily the result of new awards from the U.S. federal government.

Backlog in Building & Infrastructure at June 30, 2017 was $5,346.0 million, up $503.0 million when compared to the corresponding period last year. The year-over-year increase in backlog was primarily the result of new awards in the U.S. Buildings and Infrastructure market.

Backlog in Industrial at June 30, 2017 was $2,235.7 million, down $968.2 million when compared to the corresponding period last year. The year-over-year decrease in backlog was primarily the result of cancellations in the Life Sciences area and strong revenue realization associated with large pharma projects.

Backlog in Petroleum & Chemicals at June 30, 2017 was $5,421.6 million, up $272.5 million when compared to the corresponding period last year. Strong performance in chemicals backlog was somewhat mitigated by continuing weakness in the upstream market.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2017, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of $758.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $1.3 billion of available borrowing capacity under our $1.6 billion 2014 Facility; refer to the Note Long-term Debt in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing under Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We finance much of our operations and growth through cash generated by our operations.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2017, our cash and cash equivalents increased by $102.6 million from $655.7 million at September 30, 2016 to $758.3 million at June 30, 2017. This compares to a net increase of $155.5 million of cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended July 1, 2016.

The most significant factors contributing to the $53.0 million net decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the nine months ended July 1, 2016 are a $72.7 million decrease in cash flows relating to increases in working capital, offset in part by a $9.3 million increase in Group net earnings in fiscal 2017 as compared to fiscal 2016.

Page 29

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Our operations provided net cash inflows of $380.6 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2017. This compares to net ca sh inflows of $445.7 million for the corresponding period last year. The $65.1 million decrease was due primarily to a $72.7 million decrease in cash generated from changes within our working capital accounts (discussed below) offset by a $9.3 million incr ease in Group net earnings.

With respect to the Company’s working capital accounts, the Company’s cash flows from operations are greatly affected by the cost-plus nature of our customer contracts. Because such a high percentage of our revenues are earned on cost-plus type contracts, and due to the significance of revenues relating to pass-through costs, most of the costs we incur are included in invoices we send to clients. Although we continually monitor our accounts receivable, we manage the operating cash flows of the Company by managing the working capital accounts in total, rather than by the individual elements. The primary elements of the Company’s working capital accounts are accounts receivable, accounts payable, and billings in excess of cost. Accounts payable consist of obligations to third parties relating primarily to costs incurred for projects which are generally billable to clients. Accounts receivable consist of amounts due from our clients of which a substantial portion are for project-related costs. Billings in excess of cost consist of billings to and payments from our clients for costs yet to be incurred.

This relationship between revenues and costs, and between receivables and payables, is unique to our industry, and facilitates review of our liquidity at the total working capital level.

With respect to the Company’s trade accounts receivable, while our credit risk could be significant based on the fact that we provide services to clients operating in a wide range of industries as well as in a number of countries outside the U.S., we manage these issues closely to reduce exposures as much as possible and historically have not experienced material losses. Our private sector customers include large, well-known, and well-established multi-national companies, and our government customers consist of national, state, and local agencies located principally in the U.S., the U.K., and Australia. Although we have not historically experienced significant collection issues with our governmental or commercial customers, we continue to monitor our credit policies with our customers in the markets we serve.

We used $99.1 million of cash and cash equivalents for investing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to $92.8 million used during the corresponding period last year. The $6.3 million increase in cash used was primarily due to higher property and equipment purchases offset by lower levels of acquisition activity during the nine months ended June 30, 2017.

Our financing activities resulted in net cash outflows of $185.7 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2017. This compares to net cash outflows of $181.1 million during the corresponding period last year. The $4.6 million increase in cash used during the nine months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period last year was due primarily to $ 36.1 million in cash dividends paid, partially offset by $26.8 million in higher cash proceeds from issuances of common stock.

The Company repurchased and retired 1.7 million and 2.4 million shares of its common stock at a cash cost of $97.2 million and $102.4 million, respectively, under its July 23, 2015 share repurchase program during the nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and July 1, 2016.

The Company had $758.3 million of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2017. Of this amount, approximately $124.7 million was held in the U.S. and $633.6 million was held outside of the U.S. (primarily in the U.K., the Eurozone, Chile, and India) and is used primarily for funding operations in those regions. Other than the tax cost of repatriating funds to the U.S. (see Note 10—Income Taxes of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2016 Form 10-K), there are no material impediments to repatriating these funds to the U.S.

The Company had $38.3 million of letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2017. Of this amount, $2.5 million was issued under the 2014 Facility and $35.8 million was issued under separate, committed and uncommitted letter-of-credit facilities.

We believe we have adequate liquidity and capital resources to fund our operations, support our acquisition strategy, service our debt, and pay dividends for the next twelve months. We had $758.3 million in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2017, and our consolidated working capital position was $1.1 billion at that date. In addition, there was $1.3 billion of borrowing capacity remaining under the 2014 Facility at June 30, 2017. We believe that the capacity, terms and conditions of the 2014 Facility, combined with cash on-hand and the other committed and uncommitted facilities we have in place, are adequate for our working capital and general business requirements for the next twelve months.

Subsequent Events

Merger Agreement

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with CH2M HILL Companies, Ltd. (“CH2M”), and Basketball Merger Sub Inc., a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub will merge with and into CH2M, with CH2M continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”) and (ii) each outstanding share of common stock of CH2M will be converted into the right to receive, at the election of the holder thereof in accordance with, and subject to, the terms, conditions and procedures set forth in the Merger Agreement, in each case without interest the following consideration: (a) the combination of (x) $52.85 in cash and (y) 0.6677 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company; (b) $88.08 in cash; or (c) 1.6693 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company expects to finance the $2.4 billion in cash required for the transaction through a combination of cash on hand, borrowings under the Company’s existing revolving credit facility and $1.2 billion of new committed 3-year term debt. The Merger is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and approval by CH2M stockholders.

Commitment Letters

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a commitment letter pursuant to which BNP Paribas, BNP Paribas Securities Corp. and The Bank of Nova Scotia committed to provide a three-year senior unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.2 billion to finance the Merger, subject to customary conditions.

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a commitment letter with BNP Paribas, BNP Paribas Securities Corp. and The Bank of Nova Scotia in order to backstop its existing revolving credit facility in the event that the Company is not able to obtain the certain consents to its existing revolving credit agreement, subject to customary conditions.

Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading, speculation or other purposes that would expose the Company to market risk. In the normal course of business, our results of operations are exposed to risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Risk

Please see the Note Long-term Debt in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing under Part I,— Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference, for a discussion of the 2014 Facility.

Foreign Currency Risk

In situations where our operations incur contract costs in currencies other than their functional currency, we attempt to have a portion of the related contract revenues denominated in the same currencies as the costs. In those situations where revenues and costs are transacted in different currencies, we sometimes enter into foreign exchange contracts in order to limit our exposure to fluctuating foreign currencies. We follow the provisions of ASC No. 815—Derivatives and Hedging in accounting for our derivative contracts. The Company does not currently have exchange rate sensitive instruments that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of June 30, 2017, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, with the participation of the its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the Evaluation Date, were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting, which were identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHE R INF ORMATION

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.

The information required by this Item 1 is included in the Note Commitments and Contingencies included in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements appearing under Part I,—Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. | Risk Factors.

Please refer to Item 1A—Risk Factors in our 2016 Form 10-K, which is incorporated herein by reference, for a discussion of some of the factors that have affected our business, financial condition, and results of operations in the past and which could affect us in the future. There have been no material changes to those risk factors since the date of the 2016 Form 10-K, except for the risk factors described below and the information disclosed elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that provides factual updates to risk factors contained in our 2016 Form 10-K.

There can be no assurance that we will pay dividends on our common stock.

In December 2016, we announced that our Board of Directors approved initiation of a quarterly cash dividend program under which we have paid, and intend to continue paying, a regular quarterly dividend yielding approximately 1% per year starting in 2017. The declaration, amount and timing of such dividends are subject to capital availability and determinations by our Board of Directors that cash dividends are in the best interest of our stockholders and are in compliance with all respective laws and our agreements applicable to the declaration and payment of cash dividends. Our ability to pay dividends will depend upon, among other factors, our cash balances and potential future capital requirements for strategic transactions, including acquisitions, debt service requirements, results of operations, financial condition and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant. A reduction in or elimination of our dividend payments and/or our dividend program could have a material negative effect on our stock price.

Systems and information technology interruption or failure and data security breaches could adversely impact our ability to operate or expose us to significant financial losses and reputational harm.

We rely heavily on computer, information, and communications technology and related systems in order to properly operate our business. From time to time, we experience occasional system interruptions and delays. In addition, we face the threat to our computer systems of unauthorized access, computer hackers, computer viruses, malicious code, organized cyber-attacks and other security problems and system disruptions, including possible unauthorized access to and disclosure of our and our clients’ proprietary or classified information. As part of our ongoing effort to utilize industry accepted security measures and technology to securely maintain all confidential and proprietary information on our computer systems, we have observed increased threat activity to our computer systems, and have identified instances of unauthorized access to certain of our computer systems occurring in the 2014-2016 timeframe. In response, we are conducting an ongoing internal review with the assistance of outside counsel and technical experts to identify and remediate the source and impact of these incursions, as well as comply with related notification and disclosure obligations. Expenses incurred to date related to this matter have not been material. We will incur additional expenses and may incur losses in connection with this matter, however, at this time we are unable to reasonably estimate any such additional expenses or losses. While we have security measures and technology in place to protect our and our clients’ proprietary or classified information, if these measures fail as a result of a cyber-attack, other third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, and someone obtains unauthorized access to our or our clients’ information, our reputation could be damaged, our business may suffer and we could incur significant liability and may be required to expend significant resources to alleviate problems caused by these disruptions and breaches. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Failure of the Merger to be consummated, the termination of the Merger Agreement or a significant delay in the consummation of the Merger could negatively affect us.

Our obligations and CH2M’s obligations to consummate the Merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary conditions, including, but not limited to: (i) the approval of the Merger Agreement by the CH2M stockholders, (ii) the expiration or termination of applicable waiting periods under, or receipt of the applicable consents required under, the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended and certain foreign antitrust and competition laws, (iii) the absence of any order, applicable law or other legal restraints of certain specified governmental authorities enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Merger, (iv) the accuracy of certain representations and warranties of each of the parties contained in the Merger Agreement, subject to specified materiality qualifications, (v) compliance, in all material respects, by each of the parties with their respective covenants contained in the Merger Agreement, (vi) the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed

Page 33

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

by the Company for the issuance of the Company common stock in the Merger and the approval of the listing of such shares on the New York Stock Exchange, (vii) the absence of a material adverse effect on either CH2M or the Company since the date of the Merger Agreement and (viii) the other conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. One or more of the se conditions to the consummation of the Merger may not be fulfilled and, accordingly, the Merger may not be consummated.

If the Merger is not consummated or is delayed, our ongoing business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected and the market price of our common stock may decline significantly, particularly to the extent that the market price reflects a market assumption that the Merger will be consummated or will be consummated on a particular timeframe. In addition, we and our subsidiaries may experience negative reactions from our respective clients, regulators, vendors and employees.

Furthermore, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur substantial expenses in connection with the completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. If the Merger is not consummated, we will have paid these expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the transaction. Any of the foregoing, or other risks arising in connection with a failure or delay in consummating the Merger, including the diversion of management attention or loss of other opportunities during the pendency of the Merger, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The combined company may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger.

The success of the Merger will depend on, among other things, the combined company’s ability to combine our business with the business of CH2M and to achieve cost savings and operating synergies. If the combined company is not able to achieve this objective successfully, then the anticipated benefits of the Merger may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to materialize than expected.

The difficulties of combining the operations of the companies include, among others:

•difficulties in achieving anticipated cost savings, synergies, business opportunities and growth prospects from the combination;

•delays, unexpected costs or difficulties in completing the integration of acquired companies or assets;

•unanticipated issues in integrating manufacturing, logistics, information, communications and other systems;

•unanticipated changes in applicable laws and regulations;

•difficulties assimilating the operations and personnel of acquired companies into our operations;

| • | unanticipated changes in the combined business due to potential divestitures or other requirements imposed by antitrust regulators;

•diversion of the attention and resources of management or other disruptions to current operations;

•challenges in attracting and retaining key personnel;

•retaining key customers, suppliers and employees;

•retaining and obtaining required regulatory approvals, licenses and permits;

•difficulties in managing the expanded operations of a significantly larger and more complex company; and

•potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or delays associated with the Merger.

For example, both the Company and CH2M expect to incur substantial expenses in connection with consummation of the Merger and combining the businesses, operations, systems, policies and procedures of the two companies. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately in advance and as result may exceed the savings, if any, that the combined company achieves from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings related to the combination of the businesses following the consummation of the Merger.

The Company and CH2M have operated and, until the consummation of the Merger, will continue to operate, independently. It is possible that the integration process or other factors could result in the disruption of the ongoing business of the Company or CH2M or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies. These transition matters could have an adverse effect on us during the pre-Merger period and for an undetermined amount of time after the consummation of the Merger. In addition, events outside of our control, including changes in regulations and laws, as well as economic trends, could adversely affect our ability to realize the expected benefits from the Merger.

JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

We will be subject to business uncertainties while the Merger is pending and following the combination.

Our continued success depends, in part, upon our ability to retain the talents and dedication of our key employees and the ability of the combined company to retain the talents and dedication of CH2M’s key employees. Such employees may decide not to remain with the Company or CH2M, as applicable, while the Merger is pending. If key employees terminate their employment, or if an insufficient number of employees are retained to maintain effective operations, our business activities may be adversely affected and management's attention may be diverted from successfully managing our business to hiring suitable replacements, any of which factors may cause our business to deteriorate. In addition, we or CH2M may not be able to motivate certain key employees during the pendency of the Merger due to a perceived lack of appropriate opportunities for advancement or other reasons.

In addition, customers’ uncertainty about the effect of the Merger may have an adverse effect on the ability of the Company or CH2M to win customer contracts. Additionally, these uncertainties could cause clients to seek to change existing business relationships with us or CH2M. In addition, competitors may target the Company’s or CH2M’s clients by highlighting potential uncertainties and integration difficulties that may result from the Merger. The pursuit of the Merger and the preparation for the integration will require management attention and use of internal resources. Any significant diversion of management attention away from ongoing business concerns and any business difficulties resulting from the transition and integration process could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our operating results and share price may be volatile, which could cause the value of our stockholder’s investments to decline.

During the pendency of the Merger and following the Merger, our quarterly and annual operating results, as well as our stock price, may fluctuate, and such fluctuations may be significant. Such fluctuations may occur due to the accretion, or anticipated accretion, of the value of the Merger, the progress and success of the integration process or the perception of such progress or success, additions or departures of key personnel, or sales of large blocks of stock or the perception that such sales may occur.

Item 2. | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

There were no sales of unregistered equity securities during the third fiscal quarter of 2017.

(1) | Includes commissions paid.

(2) | On July 23, 2015, the Board of Directors approved a program to repurchase up to $500 million of the Company’s common stock over the next three years. Share repurchases may be executed through various means including, without limitation, open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The share repurchase program, which expires on July 22, 2018, does not oblige the Company to purchase any shares. The authorization for the share repurchase program may be terminated, increased, or decreased by the Company’s Board of Directors in its discretion at any time. The timing of our share repurchases may depend upon market conditions, other uses of capital, and other factors.
